Yup yup!! Disasterpiece is in full effect this week as Justin and Steve breakdance and break down Vanilla Ice's 1991 star vehicle, Cool as Ice.This steamless riff on Romeo and Juliet is a soggy mess that didn't do Vanilla Ice, or anyone involved, any favors. But just like how the movie's charmless lead is able to steal a nice girl away from her boyfriend, this film somehow landed the Academy Award-winning cinematographer of Schindler's List (and almost every Spielberg movie that followed). So even at its lowest lows, Cool as Ice looks like a million bucks.So sit back, relax, say word to your mother, and get ready to know more than anyone ever should about Vanilla Ice. And if you're lucky, you might even find out what a Roni is.Check out more from Justin here: justindodd.rocksCheck out more from Steve here: stevejhward.comdrinkgenies.com

When “Jaws” hit theatres in 1975, no one—neither the studio executives involved nor the film's twenty-six-year-old director, Steven Spielberg—was betting on its success. But it dominated at the box office and promptly revolutionized the way movies were promoted, distributed, and merchandised. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz trace how Spielberg inaugurated a new phenomenon in Hollywood: the blockbuster. He would tap his own playbook again and again with such hits as “Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” “E.T.,” and “Jurassic Park,” all of which drew impressive audiences and profits. The hosts talk through his filmography, culminating in his new release, “Disclosure Day,” which both replicates and iterates on themes and techniques found in his earlier work. Though other directors may share his capacity for spectacle and action-packed set pieces, much of his appeal lies in his profound earnestness. “What Spielberg is so good at is bringing the human to the fore in these extreme, sci-fi circumstances,” Schwartz says. “And that's what makes a great blockbuster.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Jaws” (1975)“Disclosure Day” (2026)“Minority Report” (2002)“Oscar Wars,” by Michael Schulman“What Went Wrong” 's episode about “Jaws”“Close Encounters of the Third Kind” (1977)“Jurassic Park” (1993)“E.T.” (1982)“Alf” (1986-90)“Schindler's List” (1993)“One Battle After Another” (2025)“American Journal,” by Robert Hayden“Heart of the Beast” (2026)“Sinners” (2025)“Nope” (2022)“Barbie” (2023)“Obsession” (2026)“Backrooms” (2026)New episodes drop every Thursday.

En 1993, Steven Spielberg estrenó dos películas que parecían venir de mundos opuestos: Parque Jurásico y La lista de Schindler. Durante años se repitió la idea de que una fue el precio comercial para poder filmar la otra. Pero vistas hoy, esas dos obras dialogan de manera inquietante y profunda.Este episodio propone leerlas como un solo relato dividido en dos caras: el del espectáculo y el del horror, el de la promesa tecnológica y el de la catástrofe moral. En una isla poblada por dinosaurios resucitados y en un gueto cercado por alambradas, aparecen figuras similares: empresarios convencidos de que todo lo que puede hacerse, debe hacerse. John Hammond y Oskar Schindler avanzan por caminos distintos, pero ambos encarnan la misma tensión entre ambición, dinero y vida humana.A partir de escenas, símbolos y decisiones éticas, el capítulo explora cómo Spielberg reflexiona sobre la representación: cómo mostrar lo nunca visto y cómo filmar lo casi imposible de representar. El CGI, la memoria del Holocausto, el cine como industria y como artificio se cruzan en un año clave que anticipó el fin de un Hollywood y el nacimiento de otro.Un viaje por el corazón del cine de Spielberg, donde asombrar y sobrevivir nunca dejan de estar en conflicto.Lo mejor del cine está en Cooperativapodcast.cl

Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ In this highly anticipated movie review and reaction, Roxy and Jon conquer an incredibly emotional and high-stakes rewatch of David Yates' atmospheric fantasy masterpiece, checking out how it brilliantly sets the stage for the ultimate battle against the dark arts. We unpack the powerful dramatic performances of the legendary main trio, starring Daniel Radcliffe (Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, Kill Your Darlings) bringing immense weight to the screen as a heavily targeted Harry Potter, Emma Watson (Beauty and the Beast, The Perks of Being a Wallflower) delivering pure heart and intellect as Hermione Granger, and Rupert Grint (Knock at the Cabin, Servant) portraying the emotional friction and loyalty of Ron Weasley. We also break down the phenomenal ensemble work from Ralph Fiennes (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Schindler's List) as the terrifyingly dark Lord Voldemort, Helena Bonham Carter (Sweeney Todd, The King's Speech) as the chaotic Bellatrix Lestrange, and Tom Felton (Rise of the Planet of the Apes) as the conflicted Draco Malfoy. Our hosts react to every single iconic visual setpiece, heartbreaking loss, and mythos-expanding sequence this adaptation has to offer. We break down the massive suspense of the opening "Seven Potters" aerial escape sequence, the sheer terror of the Ministry of Magic infiltration under polyjuice disguise, and the jaw-dropping, stylized animated sequence explaining "The Tale of the Three Brothers" and the origin of the Deathly Hallows. From the tense, Horcrux-induced emotional rift that temporarily tears the trio apart in the desolate woods to the absolutely devastating, tear-jerking tragedy of Dobby the House-Elf's ultimate sacrifice at Malfoy Manor, Roxy and Jon dive deep into why this specific film perfectly captures the isolating dread of war.

Daily Bitachon
104 Daily Dose of Gratitude

Daily Bitachon

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 5, 2026


Here is a lightly edited version of the transcript that polishes the grammar and improves readability while keeping the original context, structure, and conversational flow completely intact: Welcome to Daily Bitachon and our Sha'ar HaBechina . We are discussing the factors that interfere with or ruin our contemplation of what God does for us. The Chovot HaLevavot starts by telling us to look back at the beginning of the book, which discusses three initial interferences: namely, that we get used to everything, we always desire more, and we allow the things in our lives that don't go right to interfere. And now for reason number four—an additional reason that applies specifically to Bechina —and that is a person's arrogance when it comes to the benefits of God. A person often thinks, "I am deserving of this and more." In the author's words: יחשוב הכסיל הפתי כי הוא ראוי להן וליותר להן ( "The foolish fool thinks that he is worthy of them and of more than them" ). Because of this, he does not contemplate what God gave him, and he doesn't feel a need to praise and thank Hashem. As it says in the pasuk in Mishlei 16:5: תועבת ה' כל גבה לב ( "Every proud heart is an abomination to the Lord" ); it's an abomination to God when anyone is arrogant. This is a very eye-opening concept. Who doesn't have a little arrogance? The text is telling us that we feel this way because we think, "Do you know who I am? I deserve so much more." I still remember an advertisement for an expensive watch, and at the bottom, it said, "You deserve it." That is the feeling of many people today. "I deserve this; I worked hard." People use that term all the time: "You deserve it." Rav Wolbe writes about this topic in his Alei Shur (Volume 2, page 278), where he gives two reasons why we lack hakarat hatov (gratitude). Number one is hamuskal harishon , which we could translate as an axiom—something that is accepted as self-evident, a premise, or prior knowledge. There is no exact English term to translate this type of basic assumption. For example, it's like saying hamuskal harishon dictates that a person who was raised in the lap of luxury is spoiled. That's a muskal rishon , even though it might not always be that way. Rav Wolbe says that our hamuskal harishon is to understand שהכל מובן מאליו בעולם —that everything in the world is self-understood. It means we believe things are simply supposed to be there. Of course there's supposed to be a sun, a moon, and mountains. What's the question? It's just obvious. And everything is deserved. This happens because a person is born without intelligence; as they grow and become intelligent, everything seems self-understood and feels like it has to be that way. A person thinks he has to be healthy, and he has to be full and complete in his bodily functions. This is similar to what we said at the beginning of the Chovot HaLevavot's Sha'ar HaBechina —that a person gets used to everything—but Rav Wolbe is adding a little nuance here. It's not just that a person is used to it, but because he is used to it, he feels entitled . Because he is raised by parents when he is young, he thinks that is just the way it's supposed to be. You're supposed to have parents to take care of everything you need and desire. So he thinks, "Why should I thank my mother? That's what she's supposed to be doing." Furthermore, a person is born with a fundamental ego to see himself as the center of the world, believing everything was made for him. Therefore, whatever people do for him is deserved. Why should he thank anybody? He is the center of the world. Now, this is an interesting concept, because in a way, it is true. The whole world is there to serve you. That is a Gemara : Bishvili Nivra HaOlam ( "For my sake the world was created" ). But what does it mean that it was made for you? It was made to be a tool for you to serve Hashem, not because you are the center of the universe. Rav Wolbe says you need a lot of hard work to wean yourself off this original axiom and to teach yourself that nothing is self-understood. You are not entitled to anything, and everything you receive is considered a chessed ve'tovah (a kindness and a favor). That is the job of hakarat hatov . It doesn't make a difference if it's benefits you receive from God or benefits you receive from people; it is our job to constantly train ourselves that everything—literally everything—is a benefit and a kindness to us. Life itself is not self-understood. As it says in Eicha : מה יתאונן אדם חי ( "Why should a living man complain?" ). The Gemara in Kiddushin 80b expounds on this: מה יתאונן על מדותיו ( "How could you complain about God's ways?" ), וכי גבר על חטאו ( "Has he overcome his sins?" ), דייו חיים שנתתי לו ( "It is enough that I gave him life" ). Rashi explains: what are you complaining about regarding what's going on with you? Everything is a chessed . The very fact that you're alive is a chessed . Rabbi Miller brings a beautiful mashal (parable) about this. Imagine a man in a concentration camp standing in a long line, and he is on the wrong line. Someone comes over to him and says, "I can save you." For argument's sake, let's say it's Schindler. Schindler is there and says, "Listen, Yankel, I can save you, but there are a few conditions." Yankel says, "Go ahead, what are they?" "Well, first of all, you're never really going to own your own house. You're going to live in an apartment." "Okay, I'll take that." "You're going to have a wife that's difficult. It's going to be a difficult marriage; she's not going to be that easy." "I'll take that." "Some of your children are going to have challenges and will not be that easy to raise." "I'll take that." "Are you sure? You might never be able to go on a trip to Florida." "I'll take that." "You might also never be able to go away for the summer." "I'll take that." Why? Because he is giving him life. But now, here we are, used to having homes, nice spouses, good children, and vacations. Therefore, we are not happy unless we get all of those things. And when we do get those things, we think, "What do you mean? Of course I should live in a house. Shouldn't I get married? Shouldn't I have children? Of course." This is what is termed in our modern world as a sense of entitlement, which means a stable, pervasive belief that one inherently deserves special treatment, unique privileges, or an exempt status from standard rules, without any obligation to earn or reciprocate those benefits. Now, everyone has a bit of that. Of course, there is a spectrum, and it can come to a point where it becomes a clinical description. But overcoming this is our job. Rav Friedlander, in his book Sifrei Sifsei Chaim - Chinuch (page 70), says: "I remember when I was in the house of my rabbi and teacher, Rav Eliyahu Eliezer Dessler. It was a hot day, and his wife, the Rebbetzin, brought him a glass of cold water. Wow, did he say thank you! With a large smile on his face, he made a big, full statement, really thanking her for that glass of water as if she had done the biggest favor in the world for him. It was not taken as self-understood." Entitlement is the source of a lot of complaints in marriages. You hear, "My wife doesn't make dinner when I come home." Well, who said she has to? "What do you mean? That's what all wives do." Not necessarily so. There is a famous Gemara about an Amora whose wife used to make his life very difficult. When he asked for oatmeal, she brought him cold cereal; when he asked for cold cereal, she brought him oatmeal. His son was watching this and said, "Dad, why don't you just ask for oatmeal when you want cold cereal, and ask for cold cereal when you want oatmeal?" The father replied, "You shouldn't teach yourself how to lie." Yet, this same rabbi was later seen at a wedding wrapping up some cookies to bring home to his wife. Someone said to him, "Your wife? She's the most difficult woman in the world!" His answer was, "It's enough that she takes care of my children and saves me from sin." Those are the two fundamentals of marriage. Does that mean it's supposed to be an automatic entitlement to have a wife? Of course you should say thank you. There is a deal when you get married—there's a ketubah —and the basic responsibilities of marriage are just that. Everything else after that is gravy. We are going to see that this is exactly how the world was built. There is a chessed of Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Olam chessed yibaneh —the world is built on kindness. It wasn't that Hashem had to create a world. He wasn't forced to create a world, and He had nothing to gain from creating it. He is perfect; He doesn't need us, and He has everything already. So what was the point of creating a world? To do chessed . To do kindness. To give to us, and to give us existence. That is the shoresh —the root—of everything.

This week on Mostly Film, Jonathan and J.P. tackle two of Steven Spielberg's most acclaimed and impactful films: Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan.We explore a pivotal era in Spielberg's career, from the haunting moral responsibility at the heart of Schindler's List to the visceral realism and sacrifice depicted in Saving Private Ryan. Along the way, we discuss Spielberg's evolution as a filmmaker, the partnership with cinematographer Janusz Kamiński, unforgettable performances, iconic scenes, and why these films continue to shape the way audiences engage with World War II on screen.We also compare the two films as companion pieces—one focused on survival and memory, the other on duty and sacrifice—and ask which best represents Spielberg at the height of his powers. Join us for a deep dive into two cinematic landmarks and the lasting questions they leave behind.

Every now and then, a conservation opportunity comes along that you can't pass up. The Western NY Land Conservancy (WNYLC) is currently in a race to permanently protect the Bear Lake Preserve, 311 acres of undeveloped shoreline, mature forest, and an array of critical wetland habitats linked to the Lake.To break down what makes this property so special, the guys hit the trail with WNYLC Stewardship Director Josh Balisteri. He gives them a tour of the property, discussing the history and ecology of Bear Lake, the historical and global crisis of wetland loss, and why we need to start viewing the Great Lakes ecosystem through the lens of crucial "inland coasts."Head over to wnylc.org/bearlake to check out maps of the new preserve and support their work!This episode was recorded at Bear Lake in Stockton, NY (and Pomfret, NY) on May 18, 2026.Episode Notes and LinksLucy and Bear Lake:During the episode, Bill boldly threw out a bit of local lore suggesting that WNY's favorite daughter, Lucille Ball, once stayed at a cottage on Bear Lake. He diligently searched online for any evidence that this was true, but came up empty. Lucy did grow up on the shores of nearby Chautauqua Lake in Celoron and spent many summers during the peak of her popularity escaping to Chenango Lake in eastern NY, but there is no official record of her hiding out at Bear Lake. Sorting Out Our Flight Paths: Later in the conversation, Bill referenced Darryl McGrath's excellent book Flight Paths: A Field Journal of Hope, Heartbreak, and Miracles with New York's Bird People and misidentified Hemlock Lake as one of the state's first eagle hacking (establishment) sites. While Bill was correct in remembering that Hemlock Lake was mentioned in the book, he was confused about the context. In reality, Hemlock Lake played a far more poignant role: it was the home of the very last known native nesting pair of bald eagles in New York State. By the late 1970s, chemical contamination from DDT had devastated the population, and that lonely Hemlock Lake pair was all that remained of our national bird in the entire state. (The pioneering hacking program Bill was thinking of launched nearby at the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge).Why the South Shore of Bear Lake Stayed Wild: A major piece of that puzzle comes down to local history: from the 1920s through the 1970s, the land was home to a vibrant YMCA camp, and local authors Bob and Anne Deming (who Josh mentioned as key people in aiding the effort to save Bear Lake) published a book mapping out the camp's history. Originally inspired by a single chapter in their debut book, A History of Bear Lake (recently updated and re-released), they dove deeper into the archives to publish Camp in the Woods, a collection of photos and first-hand accounts from nearly 500 former campers and staff members.

Bienvenidos a un nuevo episodio de “Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas” Cine, Televisión, Música y videojuegos para escuchar.  Hoy nos ponemos los protectores, nos ajustamos las vendas y nos preparamos para “un poco de la vieja ultraviolencia” cinematográfica.Hoy regresamos a la arena. Vamos a hablar de “Mortal Kombat 2”, la esperadísima continuación de aquella cinta de 2021 que nos dejó con ganas de más sangre y, sobre todo, de un torneo real. Ha sido un camino largo. La película llega finalmente este 2026 tras un retraso que nos tuvo en ascuas, provocado principalmente por las huelgas de actores y guionistas que paralizaron Hollywood, sumado a una postproducción masiva que buscaba pulir esos efectos visuales que esta franquicia exige. Pero, ¿de qué va esta secuela? Sin caer en spoilers, la historia retoma justo donde la dejamos: las fuerzas de la Tierra deben buscar a nuevos campeones para enfrentar la invasión definitiva de Shao Kahn. Ya no es solo un preludio; ahora el destino de los reinos está en juego.Hablando de personajes, tenemos que mencionar al elefante (o más bien al actor de Hollywood) en la habitación: Karl Urban como Johnny Cage. Su llegada es un soplo de aire fresco y un bálsamo necesario tras la fría recepción de Cole Young en la primera parte, ese personaje inventado que no terminó de cuajar. Urban aporta ese carisma cínico y ególatra que Cage necesita. Ahora, es imposible hablar de esto sin sumergirnos en el legado titánico del videojuego. Mortal Kombat no solo fue un juego; fue un cambio de paradigma cultural en 1992. Fue el título que obligó a la industria a crear el sistema de clasificación por edades (ESRB) porque los padres no sabían qué hacer con esos ninjas que se arrancaban la columna vertebral en gloriosa baja resolución. Desde aquel primer gabinete de arcade hasta el realismo fotográfico de Mortal Kombat 1 (2023), la franquicia ha construido una mitología que rivaliza con cualquier épica de fantasía oscura, con dioses caídos, reinos paralelos y una tragedia familiar que atraviesa siglos.Y claro, ese éxito tenía que saltar al cine.En los 90, tuvimos la versión de 1995 de Paul W.S. Anderson, que a pesar de las limitaciones técnicas de la época, capturó una atmósfera mística y aventurera que muchos todavía guardan en un altar. Luego vino Mortal Kombat: Aniquilación en el ‘97, una cinta que, personalmente prefiero no recordar. Pero eso sí, esa primera película del ‘95 forma parte de nuestra nostalgia y es la razón por la que hoy, en 2026, seguimos emocionándonos cuando vemos a Scorpion en pantalla grande.Pero antes de entrar en faena, una aclaración necesaria sobre la escala de evaluación. En Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas somos sofisticados, pero no ingenuos. Si digo que esta película es, por ejemplo, un 8 o un 9, no la estoy comparando con La Lista de Schindler o el Michael de Fuqua. Las películas se evalúan en su propia liga. Estamos ante un cine de género, visceral y específico para un público que busca espectáculo y fidelidad al juego. No es Casablanca, es Mortal Kombat, y se juzga por cuánta adrenalina te inyecta en las venas.Cinéfilos Hierberos, prepárense. Vamos a analizar a profundidad Mortal Kombat 2.O, Como diría Scorpion: ¡GET OVER HERE!Comenzamos…Patreon: patreon.com/cinefiliayotrashierbas⁠Correo: cinefiliayotrashierbas@gmail.com No olviden suscribirse, compartir este episodio y dejar un comentario y un like, eso nos ayudará a crecer y a encontrar más audiencia.¡Que lo disfruten!#MortalKombat⁠ ⁠#Scorpion⁠ ⁠#JhonnyCage⁠ ⁠#Cine

What does it mean to be holy in America? In this podcast, Marc Barnes and Reuben Slife discuss the newest release from New Polity Press: America in the Mystery of Christ and the Church by David L. Schindler, available now at newpolity.com/books. David L. Schindler, for forty years editor of the American edition of the international theological journal Communio (founded by Joseph Ratzinger, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Henri de Lubac), devoted much of his career to a theological analysis of American culture. In the 1980s and '90s, he carried on a high-profile debate on the question with George Weigel, Michael Novak, and Fr. Richard John Neuhaus. Until now, however, none of his books has focused directly on the topic. "America in the Mystery of Christ and the Church" brings together Schindler's key writings on American culture, presenting his profound and multi-faceted thought in full. It contains a complete chronology-bibliography of his works on America and of the debate with Neuhaus, Novak, and Weigel. In addition, an extensive, original Critical Introduction gives a synthesis of his thought, with special attention to the theme of holiness and to the easily-overlooked positivity of his pursuit: to purify, in Christ, the uniqueness and gifts of the United States.

In a PS to our coverage of the Eichmann Trial we elaborate about the testimony of Dr. Foldi's description of the last time he saw his daughter in a red coat who was separated from him upon their arrival at Auschwitz.  Ever since, "the girl in the red coat" a nameless, faceless child became a representative , a composite metaphor for the millions of children who perished in the Holocaust. She was artistically portrayed In Spielberg's Schindler's List. Another outcome of Holocaust awareness, but far from the eyes of the public, Ben Gurion realized how vulnerable the Jewish People are. Given the vagaries of world history he did not wish to be exclusively dependent on the West, and decided that Israel needed to become a nuclear power. How tiny impoverished Israel pulled this off, is one more chapter in the wonders of Israel. Most of the Israel's south — the Negev Desert — was barren and uninhabitable. New immigrants were streaming into the country and every drop of water was spoken for. Israel wasn't just building a state — it was racing against thirst. Solving this problem would require innovation like the world had never seen, and something Israel's Arab neighbors could not tolerate.

Do men and women differ only in regards to the body? Or, can we speak of there being a "female" soul and a "male" soul? How do we explain the different ways that men and women relate to their bodies? In this podcast, Marc Barnes and D. C. Schindler discuss the different ways of explaining sexual difference. Specifically, they discuss Schindler's recent article in New Polity Issue 7.1/2, and a possible way to metaphysically understand the body/soul problem in relation to men and women.

It's pretty well known that originally, Steven Spielberg was interested in directing a remake of Cape Fear, and that Martin Scorsese held the rights to what became Schindler's List. That the two then swapped projects. Yet that's just part of the story. In this episode of Film Stories, Simon Brew digs into Scorsese's dislike of the project when he first came to it. Of Robert De Niro's tattoos. Of Nick Nolte not being recognised at the premiere of Goodfellas. And he uncovers a useful lesson in booking your location right near an airport...

In this episode of the Global Medical Device Podcast, host Etienne Nichols sits down with John Schindler, CEO of Liquet Medical, for a "MedTech Founder 101" masterclass. With over 25 years of experience at industry giants like Atrium and Merit Medical, Schindler shares the "painful reality checks" that come when transitioning from the structured umbrella of a large corporation to the high-stakes, resource-dependent world of a startup.The conversation dives deep into the philosophy of "novel but simple" technology. Schindler explains why simplicity is often harder to fund but essential for physician adoption and long-term market success. He challenges the current industry obsession with over-engineered solutions, arguing that the pendulum is swinging back toward intuitive, easy-to-use devices that don't "break the system" of healthcare delivery.Finally, the discussion covers the tactical realities of commercialization, including the nuances of the "Valley of Death." Schindler outlines why a limited market release is often superior to broad distribution and emphasizes the importance of building strategic enterprise value through intentional clinical data that speaks to both regulatory bodies and hospital value analysis committees.Key Timestamps00:45 – Introduction to John Schindler and Liquet Medical's mission.02:15 – The Corporate vs. Startup Reality: Losing the safety net of big-company resources.04:30 – Simplicity vs. Complexity: Why investors favor "shiny" tech but physicians crave simplicity.07:50 – The MedTech Innovator Experience: Leveraging human capital and "pressure testing" your company.10:15 – Unlearning Corporate Silos: The necessity of radical collaboration in early-stage teams.12:40 – Clinical Data Strategies: Moving beyond "clinical wins" to hospital value analysis.15:30 – Establishing "Soft Endpoints" for payers and rural healthcare settings.18:20 – Negotiating as a Cash-Strapped Startup: Approaching vendors and regulatory services with humility.21:10 – The Regulatory Chess Game: Why early engagement with the FDA prevents timeline resets.24:35 – Commercialization and the 510(k) vs. IDE strategy.27:15 – The Risks of Distribution Agreements: Why products "fall to the bottom of the bag."Quotes"The complexity can actually break the system in some ways. Physicians always gravitate back towards simplicity—things that are easy for them to wrap their heads around." - John SchindlerTakeawaysMaster the Holistic Approach: Founders should seek exposure to every facet of the business—sales, management, and business development—to understand how their innovation responds "in the trenches."Everything is Negotiable: Especially for cash-strapped startups, approaching regulatory and quality service providers with humility can lead to flexible contract structures that help build a strong foundation early.Clinical Data is for Post-Submission too: Don't just collect data to satisfy the FDA; identify "soft endpoints" that prove economic value to hospital value analysis committees and payers.Control Your Launch: A Limited Market Release (LMR) allows a startup to "get their nose bloodied" on a small scale, refining the sales methodology before attempting to scale nationally.Avoid the "Bottom of the Bag" Syndrome: Be cautious with large distribution agreements early on. If the sales force isn't properly incentivized or trained, your product may be ignored in favor of higher-margin legacy items.ReferencesMedTech Innovator: The world's largest accelerator for medical device companies.Hal Stowe (Eurofins): Referenced for his recent article on the strategic value of a purposeful regulatory strategy.Etienne Nichols: Connect with the host on LinkedIn.MedTech 101: The 510(k) vs. IDEIn this episode, John mentions having a 510(k) clearance but needing an IDE trial.510(k): Think of this as the "Me Too" pathway. You are telling the FDA your device is "substantially equivalent" to one already on the market. It gets you through the door, but often with limited claims (a "tool claim").IDE (Investigational Device Exemption): This allows your device to be used in a clinical study to collect safety and effectiveness data. It's like a "permit" to do the deep research needed to prove your device can treat a specific, high-stakes condition like a pulmonary embolism.SponsorsThis episode is brought to you by Greenlight Guru.

Glassco introduces the concept of the “App Gap,” explaining that while consumers frequently engage with apps from major brands, auto repair shops struggle with adoption because customers only download apps they trust or see immediate value in. To bridge this gap, he emphasizes delivering clear incentives and meaningful engagement. A key innovation discussed is “Sidekick Ninja,” a Chrome extension tool that complements the shop's management system by surfacing real-time customer insights, including communication history, profile data, and available offers, directly within the advisor's workflow. This integration ensures no missed follow-ups, rebates, or opportunities to enhance the customer experience. Schindler also highlights strategies to protect shop profitability, including gamifying customer engagement within a shop app. By rewarding users for actions such as adding vehicle details or personal information, shops can gather valuable data while encouraging deeper engagement. Ultimately, the episode reinforces that when technology is used to enhance, not replace, the human connection, shops can create better experiences, stronger relationships, and more consistent growth. https://www.appfueled.io/sidekick-ninja VISION Hi-Tech Training and Expo: https://visionkc.com/ Jeremy Glassco, Founder, App Fueled Joe Schindler, Schindler's Garage, Floyds Knobs, IN Thanks to our Partner, NAPA TRACS NAPA TRACS will move your shop into the SMS fast lane with onsite training and six days a week of support and local representation.
